Daf' Shubah al-Tashbih
Kitab Akhbar al-Sifat (Arabic: كتاب أخبار الصفات), better known as Daf' Shubah al-Tashbih bi-Akaff al-Tanzih (Arabic: دفع شبه التشبيه بأكف التنزيه), or Al-Baz al-Ashhab al-Munqadd 'ala Mukhalifi al-Madhhab (Arabic: الباز الأشهب المنقض على مخالفي المذهب, lit. 'The Gray Falcon Which Attacks the Offenders of the Hanbali School'), is a theological polemic written by Hanbali Islamic scholar Abu'l-Faraj ibn al-Jawzi between 1185 and 1192. The polemic is primarily directed at what, Ibn al-Jawzi held to be, growing anthropomorphic beliefs within the Hanbali school of jurisprudential thought.
